Gifu JALT:

Developing Discourse Competence Through Storytelling

Date: Sunday, May 27th, 2001 Time: 3:45 PM - 4:45 PM

Speaker: Paul Doyon, Asahi University

Description:
(The third of three presentations today) In this presentation, the presenter will focus on developing discourse competence (cohesion and coherence) through the medium of telling stories. When students tell interesting and fun stories to each other in the language classroom, they are not only engaging in real communication, but are also developing fluency and accuracy skills in the target language. Moreover, by rereading and retelling these same stories, they can engage in self-corrective feedback.

Organization: Gifu Chapter of the Japan Association for Language Teaching (Gifu JALT)

Cost: JALT Members: free
Non-members: 1000 yen for the full day of presentations
